Description
In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Mike Stone and Dr. Carl Seger, to discuss one of the most controversial topics in the food industry: glyphosate. Glyphosate is the active ingredient in many weed killers and is also used as a pesticide in agriculture. It has become a hot-button issue in recent years due to concerns about its potential impact on human health. In this episode, Dr. Stone and Dr. Seger dive into the potential health implications of glyphosate exposure and the conflicting research surrounding its safety. They'll explain what glyphosate is, where it is commonly found, and practical tips on how to avoid glyphosate exposure. Episode References: International Agency for Research on Cancer. (2015).
